Max (and everyone else), still on for the Friday Beer-stravaganza? My almanac tells me Friday night's weather will be appropriate for two things: bikes and Belgian beer. Belgian bikes and Belgian beer? I wish.

After some careful research, it's been discovered that Stella is just a mid-grade French road bike company. I won't tell if you won't. As to ride time, I'm a working stiff, college boy. How 'bout 6?

Also, check your inbox, I'm sending a pm.

did you decide what bar. 6pm is cutting it a little close for me to get home from work and changed into my drinkin' clothes.

If I know what bar you are at, or a route, I can meet up with you and drink my face off.

There was mention of Grace Tavern on 23 and South. Owned by the fine folks that brought you Monks, Fergies, Nodding Head and home of reasonably proced beers and one kick-ass burger. Seriously, freakin' good burger. Except last time I was there, it was last Friday night at 9 and the cook back there must have been smoking rope.

Soooo... want to go there and smoke some of that rope?

...or we could push it back 30 minutes for Kevin? I have no preference. I'm all for getting as many folks to commit to this bike-a-drink-a-thon as possible.

So confusing, posting to a page within a page within a page within a page. Whew, this sh*t's like fractals or something.

Hmmm.... if you wait for me you may miss the "happy hour" time at most places. Plus, if we want Ashley involved in this, he doesnt get OUT of work until 6pm. I would say to just keep doing what you are doing and let the stragglers (like me) find our own way. hahaha. unless there are MORE people who need the extra time as well. I dont want you guys waiting up for little ol' me.

Its funny that you decided on Grace Tavern since thats pretty much my neighborhood bar... well, except for the Sidecar (which has PBR on tap). It sounds like you are going for GOOD beer, so Grace would be the way to go. I have Maxxx's number, so I can just call and find out where you are if I am running late.

kevin, who invited you anyway? just kidding. but yeah you can call me and i'll let you know where we are if plans change. and even if we waited a little bit, its not a big deal because happy hour doesnt start until you get there anyway.

and ashley too
